Dumb thing I saw yesterday

I saw a C320 coupe with the 0 taken out. So it said C32 on the back. What's worse is that he had no mods done either. If he at least had something done like at least change the rims I might have respected half of it I hate posers

Perhaps someone nicked it, or it fell off. I've seen a new CLK 320 around town with the 'O' missing, and it looks like there are a few scratch marks where the missing digit was supposed to be. I think it's rather amusing to see posers doing a poor job

The other day I saw a BMW "M32". This guy had purchased a 325i sedan, dropped the 5i and added an M badge. There were no mods.

I forgot to add, the C32 I saw also had the AMG badge. That's what really got me laughing. Sorry, I forgot to add the best part.

I doubt it. I know there are a few people on the coupe forum that have made theirs an "AMG C32" Coupe with those little tricks. I seem to remember one of them justifying that it was accurate since they had AMG Sways.

No for sure it wasnt the AMG coupe. This guy had stock rims and no body effects. You can tell he was a poser

Honestly, the only thing I can think of is that it looks cooler to have 2 digits rather than 3. I guess if I had a C24 it would look exotic since most Benz have 3 digits.

Awwww - c'mon

I think s/he just do it for fun and has no intention of fooling anyone.

Those who can be impressed know what to look for - like you. Those who can't don't know the difference anyway.

You don't think s/he was trying to impress people who know nothing? What the point in that?

SO let it be

white and whiter
you'll see whole lots of things in 909/626 area code. Just last night I saw a 03 C320 sport with AMG badge. It's brand new too. I was gonna ask him what kind of AMG is it, but he got into the car before I could get close. Nice car either way tho.

Get this...

Just saw a blace C32 Wagon with AMG badge on the right side at Orance County area today when I get on the I405 FWY. I catched up right behind him and just tap a bit of gas to pass him to see if he will follow...no luck. :P I guess he saw my side badge tha he forgot to buy.

I saw an AMG TL here in Richmond, BC before. Some people said that TL has AMG parts, but I wonder what kind of parts it got.
